Manage Servers (Enterprise Version Only)

From this screen you can add new servers to the Enterprise Console or manage existing servers. It is also possible to directly add local instances to the Enterprise Dashboard from the Instance Manager. The form to add a new server has the following fields:

 

Name

This is the name which will appear in the Enterprise Dashboard under your server icon.

URL

This is the location of FusionReactor on the target server. An example URL will look something like this:
http://127.0.0.1:8088/fusionreactor

Password

This is the password of FusionReactor on the target server.

Script

If you specify the path to a script on your server then it will be called when the server goes down or comes up. See the script section below for more information.

Status

You can choose if this new server is online or offline. An online server will collect statistics and display them in the Enterprise Dashboard and if there are any problems then you will see warnings. If a machine if offline then no information will be gathered and the icon will be displayed in gray. If you are adding a server which is currently turned off then you should set it's status to offline. You can change it's status later by returning to the Manage Servers page or by clicking the status button (top right hand corner of a server icon,) directly within the Enterprise Dashboard.

Groups

If you have any groups set up then they will be listed here. Simply select which groups you want this new server to appear within. You can add new groups at any time from the Manage Groups page.

 

Once you submit the form the page will be refreshed and your new server will be listed at the bottom of the page along with its current connect status.

Managing Existing Servers

Below the Add Server form you will see a list of all servers currently available in the Enterprise Dashboard. Each server has three icons next to it:
 

Modify Server

Clicking on this icon will take you to the Modify Server page. From this page you can change any of the information which is listed above.

Check Server

Clicking on this icon will check the connect status for a server. The screen will be refreshed and you will see a message telling you if there were any problems trying to access FusionReactor on this server.

Delete Server

Clicking on this icon will prompt you if you are sure you want to delete the server. If you OK the dialog then the server will be removed from the Existing Servers list and from the Enterprise Dashboard.

 

Clicking on the URL for any server in the Existing Servers list will take you directly to the instance of FusionReactor which is running on that server.

Shutdown / Startup Script

The script file which you can associate with a server will get called whenever that server goes down or comes back up again. It takes 5 parameters, they are:

 

Status

This parameter will have the value "DOWN" or "UP"

InstanceName

This is the instance name of the server in question (as defined on the Manage Servers page.)

InstanceIP

This is the IP address of the server in question.

PID

The Process ID of the Server. You could use this in order to terminate a server which had stopped responding. (If the PID is unknown then a value of -1 will be passed.)

LastSeen (ms)

This is the last time (expressed in milliseconds) that the server was last successfully contacted.
